"Just after ubnoxing the EHX 2880 I've made a quick patch on the Buchla and started this improvisation.

Sorry it is a bit long, but time passes very fast when doing such stuff, but well.. it's nice to hear the soundscape going more and more chaotic and rich as minutes passes by.

In the EHX 2880 I've definitely found the perfect companion for my Buchla, hurray!

Any comment is welcome :)"

Abeem Live Technologies updates Rack Performer to 0.96-alpha

"Abeem Live Technologies has updated Rack Performer to version 0.96-alpha.

This update includes many stability improvements especially around VST support, and should address all reported issues. The keyboard mapper is now completely functional, including all submap types, new simplified mapping types (control focus vs action keys) and a brand new configuration dialog to select layout and numeric pad mode.

New features:
* Major rework of the keyboard mapping types (simpler, more consistent and uniform)
* New keyboard layout selection and configuration dialog allows to setup the keyboard mapper easily
* Keyboard follows and can also change module control focus (aka Keyboard control focus)
* Keyboard focus lock can force keyboard control focus to stay on a given module until manually unlocked
* Control combo mode for numeric pad keys adds extra controls to interact with the focus target

New modules:
* New mini blank GUI wrapper, smallest possible GUI while retaining full control focus ability

Curious if this is related to the Anyware Instruments SEMtex.

Update via Moregeometrico: "the one you see was the first prototype of the semtex series. I just reboxed and reknobbed it!"

New Leploop Website

http://www.nazzilla.com/lep-loop/

"Laboratorio Elettronico Popolare (L. E. P. ) is proud to present to you a one-of-a kind analog synthesizer, sequencer and drum-machine: LEPLOOP!

Small in nature but aggressive in sound, the user will be able to create a variety of analog timbres and beats.

LEPLOOP was designed to be a minimalist electronic music live-performance groove-box, which can be used to create a variety of electronic musical styles.

The LEPLOOP can be synched via MIDI to another LEPLOOP for tempo-synched operation or to another MIDI device or sequencer to receive sequence stop & start i nstructions."

Alesis HR-16:B Demo Song & Sony VX-2000 Demo Mode

YouTube via zibbybone | February 17, 2011 |

"Here's the internal demo song for the Alesis HR-16:B. To try to "spice up" this boring video, I put my VX-2000 into "Store Demo Mode" which showcases some of its built-in digital effects. The video is still boring, but at least it gives you an idea of this machine's "aggressive" sounds from 1989. My appologies for the loose audio connection in a couple of spots. Not significant enough for me to re-shoot. Enjoy!"
